What Can I Say?

Ron Paul is a hero. Though he was ignored in the beginning of the debate tonight, his answers on war and peace were the most magnificent ever heard in politics. Indeed, on the cost of war and empire as well as states rights, monetary policy, the Fed, the business cycle, and every other area, Ron Paul was also courageous, passionate, eloquent, and 100% right. Wow! He was on fire. He won easily against the 7 neocons by simply telling the truth. He won the debate by simply being Ron Paul, the greatest champion of freedom, peace, and sound economics in the history of American politics. If the people of Iowa are decent, if they deserve a man this good, they will give him a landslide in the straw poll. I was encouraged that the audience at the debate clearly agrees with me.

Says Debbie Ayers:

If Michele Bachmann's migraines are to be an issue, why is Herman Cain's stage 4 cancer never mentioned?

A Message From Neocon Central

Commentary: If Ron wins the Ames straw poll, and well he might, it will discredit the straw poll, not help Ron. Right, boys. And Iraq will be a cakewalk.

'Ron Paul spreading same message as always, resonating finally'

St. Petersburg Times:

"Ron Paul framed it as 'a fight that could literally change our country' and laid out a plan: Return to the gold standard, end U.S. military interventions overseas, demolish the Federal Reserve and stop bailouts.

"'Overwhelmingly, people said they wanted a man of principle in Washington,' his campaign manifesto read. 'They said they want someone who was really against budget deficits, big spending and high taxes, not someone who says one thing and does another.'

"The fundraising letter could have arrived yesterday.

"But it was written in 1984." Read the rest.
